An epidemic incident has been registered in the Armenian army.

Axar.az reports this information is shared on social networks.

So, Igor Sarkisyan, a serviceman in one of the military units in the Gafan district, was hospitalized on suspicion of coronavirus.

Social network users say that the fact is hidden from the public and even from Sarkisian's relatives.

After the spread of coronavirus in Iran, Prime Minister Pashinyan said that the border with the country would be closed. The announcement of the temporary suspension of relations with Iran's main economic partner, Iran, was unanimously agreed. It has been claimed that because of the fact that coronavirus passed from Iran to Armenia, Pashinyan had to announce that such a decision would be made.

However, relations with Iran have not been stopped yet.

Note that the Gafan district is on the border with Iran.
